'Illegalities and breaking precepts' refers to going astray. 'Not seeing anyone whom one could ask about right and wrong' means not knowing offense and non-offense. 'The superior merits of the ten good deeds' have five grades: the lower ten good deeds are humans and devas; the medium are śrāvakas; the upper are pratyekabuddhas; the upper-medium are bodhisattvas; the supreme are buddhas, realizing the Buddha's knowledge of the path. Baoliang states: The intent of being unable to institute them all at once is not yet clear, so another question is now formulated. The answer is that the Tathāgata also knew this matter; for instance, Sudinna would commit an offense tomorrow, so why not preemptively institute it today? If there were an instituted rule, he would naturally not offend; since he would certainly not offend, he would not fall into the evil destinies; hence it is said that they should have been instituted beforehand. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 11.76](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1763.11.76) - [Next: 11.78](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1763.11.78) - [Up: 11](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1763.11) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1763~en-mt.11.77) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1763.11.77](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1763.11.77) · Pramāṇa
